Oliver Ditson and Dreadnought

He was the founder of Oliver Ditson and Company, one of the largest musical intruments and music publishing houses of the 19th century. Back in 1916, Ditson, one of Martins largest customers, ordered the first Dreadnaught shaped guitars. Even though the big guitar wasn't so popular until a couple of years later, it's safe to say that this was a turning point for the history of guitars, and music in general.

Often abbreviated to OM - following Martin’s nomenclature - they are larger than parlour size guitars and have a much richer sound while still retaining the comfort and playability. They don’t have as much bass as a grand auditorium or dreadnought and as such are perfect for more melodic, precise playing. This shape strikes a balance between playability and sound projection. Known for their distinctive sound, providing bright highs, good articulation, and a balanced tone, OMs are suitable for a wide range of musical styles. Orchestra model guitars are ideal for beginners because they produce a beautiful, rewarding tone without compromising on comfort and playability.

A folk guitar (or "000" - triple-O) is a body type typically associated with warm and bright sound, ideal for folk music and fingerstyle playing. Folk guitars usually feature a smaller and narrower body compared to dreadnoughts, with good note articulation that allows the musician to express dynamics and nuances in their playing. These guitars are suitable for various music styles, including folk, acoustic blues, indie, and other genres where maintaining clarity of sound is important.
